Hi, and thanks for visiting my profile! I use a cognitive behavioral therapy called acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), which includes mindfulness techniques and defining your values. Research shows that ACT is effective for a wide range of client issues. I treat anxiety (including OCD and panic disorder), depression, adjustment issues, difficulty with life transitions, marital issues, career/academic stress, and relationship problems. I also really enjoy assisting with parenting issues, women's issues, and postpartum adjustment. I have a background in child clinical psychology so feel well equipped to help with parenting.

I have been in private practice for 34 years in the capacity of family therapist and clinical director at two residential facilities. I do not believe in long term therapy, and on occasion, clients will come back for a "tune-up." I am direct, I will give you feedback, (not tell you what to do) and be very supportive at the same time. Family therapists, believe that behaviors get passed down from generation to generation. We would explore your "family of origin" and sort out what behaviors are working for you and what needs to change. If YOU do the work, You WILL get better!

Depression, anxiety, panic and poor self-esteem can have a profound effect on our day to day lives. Reaching out to someone new can be difficult even when we feel our best. The courage you present by making such an important phone call is tremendous. I am honored to be able to help when you call. Please note I can only bill for CIGNA/Eversource and ANTHEM insurances.

Seeking therapy is an important step on your journey to promoting healthy change and positive growth in your life. You are many things, and take on many roles in your life. I believe positive change does not occur from an outside source, but comes from your own strength and resilience, as well as a better understanding of who you are. My role is to guide and challenge you on your journey of re-connecting to your own potential and power so you can achieve change in yourself and your life. With current COVID-19 concerns regarding public health & safety, please know I offer online/video counseling sessions for new & existing clients.

What if you could "end" your marriage as it is... but create a new one, with each other? Maybe you’ve been putting off therapy for a while, or perhaps you’ve tried it in the past, only to find the same issues resurfacing a few months later. I don’t blame you – this is hard work. Traditional couples and family therapy can take years, but you need help NOW. With over 25 years of experience, I help couples and families quickly identify the root causes of their issues so that they can move forward with confidence and change their lives – now, and for good. My goal: to get you off the couch and back to your life as quickly as possible.

Although I spend part of the year in San Francisco, I am still working with clients in Connecticut. I have a beautiful new office in Guilford, located on the shoreline between New haven and New London. Due to my older son located in CT, I find myself visiting often. With most of my services occurring through Zoom, I have decided to make myself available in both states.

Currently my work is focussed on helping clients use the unique opportunity of psychotherapy to explore and understand feelings, thoughts and behaviors that contribute to some difficulties they might be having. Goals can be to learn about oneself, and find self acceptance, provide emotional relief, make and sustain satisfying relationships and make good choices going forward. Choosing to begin psychotherapy is an important decision and it is essential to find a good match between client and therapist so I encourage people to make an initial appointment to see whether we should take this journey together.

Ready to punch the next person who says “Everything happens for a reason” or “Time heals all wounds”? You know that none of us make it to adulthood without experiencing loss. Everyone is grieving something. But it doesn't stop the crushing weight in your chest first thing in the morning. It also feels like snapping at your kids when you don’t mean to, being extra clumsy, exhausted, numb, or nursing a pervasive brain fog. The grief comes in waves; battering you, crashing into you, knocking you breathless to your knees. You may not see how yet but you will get through this, and I’m here as your guide and support along the way.

I’m sure you’ve been asked this a thousand times… “I’m so impressed—how do you do it?” On the one hand, that question is SO satisfying as your inner perfectionist steps up to claim her gold medal. But on the other, you’re silently screaming that the pressure of trying to do it all is crushing you. Your perfectionism shows up in your work. You probably find yourself working way more hours than your colleagues. It might show up in your relationships. Have you ever gone into a tailspin because you wanted to plan the perfect party for a loved one? Or it might show up within yourself—how you eat, dress, exercise, or maintain your home.

Shoreline TMS
MD
Shoreline TMS offers Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation: an FDA-approved, non-invasive outpatient medical procedure for patients suffering from medication-resistant depression. TMS works by delivering short, powerful bursts of magnetic energy to the area of the brain where mood is regulated. Rapid pulses work to stimulate the nerve cells that are not firing at full capacity in the depressed brain. There are minimal side effects associated with TMS. A patient may be a good candidate for TMS if they are still suffering from depression despite having tried multiple medications.

My ideal client is an individual who is willing to work. I have a passion for helping clients learn more about who they are and how to fully accept both the good and the bad with in them. This understanding of who we are, will always lead to a healthier state of mind. For me there is no greater reward then seeing a client reach that AH-HA moment that true inner growth and self-awareness connects.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
